Webinar 1: Spring: healthy, green and fresh!

It’s amazing what a bit of sunlight, a few drops of rain and a bit of warmth can do! With fresh herbs lifting your dishes to another level, baby greens packed with flavor, asparagus pointing their heads up through the sand and green peas at their finest, there is no excuse for not enjoying what spring has to offer. As usual, an amazing dish always comes with an amazing wine, for you, it will be a selection of 3 possible matches.

Healthy, green and fresh are the keywords.
